During my "Summer Girl" summer, there were other songs on the radio that I liked, besides "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" - "Shop Around" by the Captain and Tenille; "Let 'Em In" by Paul McCartney and Wings; and anything by Fleetwood Mac.
A moment when the children's mother smiled and got happy was when there was a Fleetwood Mac song on and I said I liked it and she said, with enthusiasm, "I love Fleetwood Mac!"
She spoke about her and her husband's anniversary coming up, that summer - and on my day off when she dropped me at the mall (there's, like, no place else to go, in the suburbs) I bought an anniversary present for them: a photo cube. A square plastic thing where you slide in photographs.
To say it's a "plastic thing" might not sound very good, but it was pretty nice: once you put the pictures in, all you see when you look at it is the pictures.
I thought she would like it because she sometimes took pictures of her daughters, with a little camera.
